Bobby Prince footage:
The first sound of the rocket launcher is NOT the same as the pistol slowed down. Anyone can hear that. And the wave form is different.
5:38 id bet he was lying so he didnt get jumped by warner bros (very fair thing)
At 7:18 is it me or the arachnotron sound exactly like the starting sound of pinball Space cadet?
DOOT 14:28
oh my God, Dadcino <3
So, after all these years, the mancubis was telling me "quiet" every time I used my shotgun on him? This whole time, he just wanted me to not make such a noise.
Man chewing on bone triggered a core memory – it was used for the Zerg eggs in StarCraft!
RIP Bobby 🫶
Hope everyone stuck around to the very end after the patreon shout outs! 👀😅 That was great and really put a smile on my face, hope you and the whole pumpkin fam are well and thank you for all the videos!!
Wait the rumors were right the plasma shot does have a pistol sound in it
I think it's cute that there's still stuff like this to be made about this game. Even now it's a little strange to hear these clips in such high definition.
2:25 The HD bone chewing noise was also used for the Cocoons in Starcraft!
Someone in near future will just feed some AI model all these old sound assets, and train it to match every sound of Doom, and get 100% matches on all of them!
5:05 I feel vindicated all these years later!
Yo what about Doom 3 sound origin?
Also rip Bobby 🙁
Are you sure about baron sound? I kinda hear it's similar but not matching enough. Maybe something else mixed in?
RIP Bobby
It’s a damn good day when our boy Decino is back
Did you actually record your own niece saying "Why" for your recreation? Just curious
Yellow thumbnail!!!
Edit:
Great video as always. Terrible to hear Bobby has passed away. He was part of one of the greatest games ever made. What a legend.
Thanks for the video, Decino
The Arachnotron walking sound COULD be an orchestral sting hit, like what one would find on a Casio or similar model of keyboard synthesiser around this time…
I think it would be a good idea to put a list of the sounds that haven't been found yet so people know what to keep looking for.
I'm pretty sure Elmer Fudd is the correct source of that sound effect. Check out 'Realms of Chaos' – a neat little platformer from Apogee (1995) with breathtaking art. Bobby Prince did the music on this game, and apparently sounds as well. The frogs in the second episode of this game use the same sound effect, only less sped-down.

8:04 Hit the nail the head here. I'm certain that, in addition to all the clipping and time stretching, Bobby threw some more traditional effects and EQ on as well – I can definitely hear added reverbs on some. It doesn't take much of that to make a sound unrecognisable.
Creating a simple FX chain that emulates that lower bit depth and rate of the game may help the chase? At least, it's easier to confirm that a sound really was used if a bit of simple audio manipulation makes it fairly spot-on.
outro is so cute 🙂
Hmmmmmm, a friend linked me this video before the Youtube algorithm showed it to me. Maybe the thumbnail should be more yellow?
Thank you sir ducino!
RIP to the legend Bobby Prince.

Is not the sound of door closing but pitched down ?
And the pickup sound sounds like a synth key, like the one used in the french TV show Motus in the 2000's
You know, that high pitch servo on arachnotron walk sounds a lot like the first half of the stock servo motor 03 to me. Sure that's not a match if you cut that first part out and mess with it?
4:05 the correct pitch should be 25%. Just tried it on Audacity. Great video!
Cacodemon wake up sound looks like sound of pissed off cat
2:26 StarCraft Zerg Larve stock sound found
RIP Bobby Prince
You know shits getting real when he says “I think”
not really convinced on Baron/Knight
Rip Bobby Prince.
